If you ever want to try out the oval cars, the Late Model races are an asbolute blast. Tight, close racing on some really short tracks... lots of fun.

I love Sebring

Gonna need to buy that track plus Barber and VIR.

I actually did a Legends race last night. I have zero practice with ovals so I pretty much just tried to stay out of everyone's way. It was ok but I definitely like the road courses way more. I'll give it a few more tries though.

I have the Corvette, that thing is a beast and sounds the part too!

Yeah I have a feeling that thing is going to be a handful!

It really isn't that bad at all. There's so much downforce that it's almost too easy to drive!

Agreed. Believe it or not it is one of the easiest to drive cars they have on offer. Sticky tires and lots of downforce.

Well that's surprising. I figured it would be real tail happy. I'll probably buy it tonight

At low speeds you have to be careful but anytime else the throttle is just an on/off switch.

Do you guys tweak the car setups yourselves? I always seem to make things worse. Any sites you recommend that have setups for download?

I do a lot of tweaking myself, especially for the oval setups. If you check the iRacing forums there are usually a bunch of setups posted for each car in their respective sections.

Figured I would bump this thread with my new iRacing setup...

It is sick. Totally changes the experience.

Nice! What are you using for a graphics card to get the triple head display?

It's a Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 2GB card that supports Eyefinity 6.
